Behind The Premium

The leading investigative podcast that discusses today's hidden healthcare costs and waste.

Behind the Premium is the podcast network produced in partnership with Weltrio to bring transparency to the real cost of healthcare and employee benefits. Hosted by Kody King, it puts clinicians, benefits leaders, brokers, and operators at the table for candid conversations about where premium dollars actually go — and what employers can do to stop the leakage. For us, it's an extension of a simple belief: a dollar not spent is 100% of a dollar saved. The network spans several series, including Second Opinion and Benefits 3.0, both produced in partnership with Weltrio.
